Hyperlink autocorrection errors

I am trying to edit a series of simple html files on a remote server. I
navigate to the file and right-click and edit in FP. I am trying to create
hyperlinks within this page to videos within the same file/folder structure
on the server. When ever I do this it changes the hyperlink automatically to
what it thinks should be the right path, and its not, and then the links
don't work when we open the file.

I can use either a hard link like \\file01\products\video01.wmv or an hpp
path like http://products/video01.wmv.

In either case FP is correcting it to ..\..\..\..\file01\products\video01.wmv.

Please help me figure out how to turn off this autocorrection. Thanks.
 
FP only works with relative hyperlinks, so this (..\..\..\..\file01\products\video01.wmv) should
work if you have the web/site open in FP to begin with and not just pages

Its not a true Web site. Its the back-end to a larger portal. Is there any
way to do this?
